Mojo Monday #97

Woohoo! It’s another Mojo Monday sketch to play along with. These sketches are so great – give you a fabulous place to start, and things just seem to flow from there. This card has been made with a particular friend in mind – a very special friend - “just because”. OK, so maybe it’s “just because she had a birthday last Wednesday”. NO – don’t even consider that I may have forgotten her birthday. I sure didn’t forget – in fact, when she arrived at my place on Sunday, I asked her if she was all ready for her birthday tomorrow… See – I didn’t forget – just wrote down the wrong date for her birrthday. {SHAME}! Sorry Jacqui – you are so incredibly gracious, and even when I SAW YOU ON YOUR BIRTHDAY and didn’t wish you a happy birthday, you still didn’t say anything! Man – I’m really bad! So I’ve made this card, and am just putting some finishing touches on a little something to go along with it, and then I’m heading up town with Blake, who has a teacher-only day today, and we’re having lunch up town. Blake has spent about 3 hours cleaning his room from top to toe. No grumbling, no whining or moaning – he just got stuck in, and our rubbish bin is now FULL! Isn’t that fabulous? So we’re celebrating – with lunch! After lunch I’m coming home to make some Triple Mini Chocolate Cheesecakes – YUMMO! We’ve got our final squash competition against another club tonight, and it’s all come down to the wire – we're only 1 point apart at the moment, so if our team all win our games – we’re the champions!! No pressure or anything!

How lucky am I? I am so very pleased you even made me this beautiful card based on the mojo sketch. You know how much I love them.... You obviously know me well considering you used my favourite colours on the card and gift and my favourite treats in the super gift tin.I feel very blessed with a friend like you. I have no idea how you find the time to do all you do and still take time out to think of others. Thanks so very much for making a such a beautiful card and the PERFECT gift especially for me! You made my birthday a happy one even though it lasted more than one day!LOL.

People can be unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.If you are honest, people may cheat you.Be honest anyway.If you find happiness, people may be jealous.Be happy anyway.The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

Someone once said"A friend hears the song in my heart and sings it to me when my memory fails"I'm so thankful for my family & friends - I know I don't tell you loud enough, or often enough, but THANK YOU - so many of you who read this blog are such good friends, and I want to acknowledge the part you all play in making my life richer!
